I've had a bit of a search around and all I can see is its a method of shortcutting to files somehow within filemanager... saw it mentioned in some posts on getting CoD BO working but can't find anything concise.

I'd write the manual on all this stuff if only I understood it better I am a documentation specialist

I wonder if the "Shadow Copy" thing works at all like the the XBE shortcuts in the original Xbox.

It's not a bad theory to have it call one path, and load a small file that forwards to load from another path. I may be way off base, as I've not really looked into loading of backups at all, I'm concerned more about advancing development of apps that are homebrew or emulators, but allowing greater access than we currently have in the 3.55 CFW.

Hey deanrr, any chance you could add the ability to change the stack size & priority for direct launch. For instance Madden 11 doesn't work with stack size of 1M & a priority of 3071, however, it does work with direct launch if stack size is 128K & priority is set at 1001.

edit: Is it even possible to change stack size & priority "on the fly"?

Nice deanrr ! Now we just need a solution to run games from XMB without using /app_home/PS3_GAME/ and Syscalls. Shouldn't be easy but there comes so many different solutions all the way up - I'm looking forward which way you do.
